I am quite new in setting up e-mail server on linux - I barely set up the whole think to get it working and connected it with my domain and php script which uses PHPMailer 5.2.1. In my setting I am using smtp server from my web provider (domain) and all e-mail which are not defined (trash) are sent on one simple address like I have address [email protected]. So when somebody will send email to [email protected] it will be forwarded again to [email protected] even in case of failure.
I am receiving emails like:
Hi. This is the qmail-send program at comercio.interone.com.br.
I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following addresses.
This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out.
<[email protected]>:
Sorry, no mailbox here by that name. (#5.1.1)
--- Below this line is a copy of the message.
Return-Path: <[email protected]>
Received: (qmail 49156 invoked from network); 25 Jun 2012 07:34:57 -0300
Received: from unknown (HELO S0106602ad08df877.no.shawcable.net) (70.66.34.103)

I am sure I did not send this email from my domain.com with some Davis8FB name and some russian page. This is just one of many and only NOT-delivered e-mails - there can be much more which has been sent successfully! What do I have wrong in my settings? How can I make it right? What should I do to prevent these messages to send? Where should I look? Thank you all.
